Abstract: This study explored students’ satisfaction towards learning foreign languages (Thai, English, and Japanese) with native teachers at a private language school. The purpose of the study was to find out the level of students’ satisfaction in terms of classroom management and the personal characteristics of teachers. The participants in this study were 60 Thai and foreign students who were studying Thai, English, or Japanese at one private language school in the Silom area, in Bangkok, Thailand. Data was collected using questionnaires and analyzed statistically with the SPSS program. The finding indicated that most of the participants had a very positive attitude towards their native teachers. The items that had the most significant levels of satisfaction in terms of classroom management were that the teachers give students opportunities to ask questions and share ideas, the teachers can correct students’ mistakes effectively, the teachers can make a difficult topic easy to understand, the teachers can connect students’ prior knowledge to new content in the classroom, and the teachers can give comprehensive help to students by answering questions and giving students good suggestions. In terms of personal characteristics of teachers, the students were satisfied with their teachers who are punctual, warm, friendly, emotionally stable, and good at listening to students’ opinions. They also suggested that teachers should use various tools and materials, should have a sense of humor, should evaluate their comprehension by preparing tests, should use supplementary materials in addition to textbooks, and should give and follow up on homework
